I recently renovated my kitchen. I changed everything – from the flooring to the appliances. I got a matte black fridge and a matte black oven, however, I didn’t think of one thing – How am I going to clean them?

I had some friends come over so that I could show them how my new kitchen looked like. And one of them asked me how do I clean these matte black appliances. He was genuinely so interested, however, I previously hadn’t even thought about it. Yes, the last thing on my mind was how was I going to clean them – but he was right, I had to find out a way to keep them spotless.

How I Clean My Matte Black Kitchen Appliances?

I previously had a stainless steel fridge and I knew exactly how to clean it in order to maintain it shiny. I was so used to cleaning stainless steel and polishing it after that it was a part of my cleaning routine. Now I had to change that and I had no idea whether it would be more difficult. Maintaining matte black looks difficult, right? Well, it turns out I was wrong!

Thankfully, cleaning matte black appliances is so much easier than cleaning stainless steel ones! All you need to do is wipe them with a damp cloth from time to time and it will be enough. If there are any smudges or stains then you can use soapy water.

You don’t need to use any special cleaners, harsh chemicals, or even natural ingredients like vinegar – all you need is water, liquid soap, and a cloth!

One thing I keep in mind is to always wash my hands before I touch them! Touching them with dirty hands almost always means that you will leave a stain behind.
